Web experience bug fixes and maintenance
Alert toast fix
Fixed an issue where CAD alert toasts could stop appearing in real time when the Axon Devices layer was active on an Agency/Legacy SSO account, while calls were still being processed normally in the background.
Availability: US1
Real-Time Grid sync for active incidents
Incident commanders and operators can now work from a shared, always-current picture when using grids in an active incident. When you open an incident that has a grid set up, it will automatically be visible without any extra steps. As your team makes changes — moving objects on the map, redrawing shapes, updating the grid, or adding and removing room clearance icons — those updates appear for everyone in the incident in real time. No need to refresh the page or tap "Refresh Map View." If you step away and come back to an incident, you will see the latest version of the grid right away. Note: if you are actively resizing the grid, you will not see grid changes from other users until you finish. Updates to shapes and objects from your teammates will still come through during that time.
Availability: All regions
Full Chat members list now displays
Fixed an issue where the channel Members list only showed the first 20 members with no way to scroll; the list is now fully scrollable.
Incident-to-Chat workflow fixed
Fixed an issue where incidents created within the Fusus web application could not be sent to a Chat channel.
Availability: US1
Mobile (iOS and Android)
iOS features and enhancements
iOS 4.0.4 This release improves On/Off Shift, across both location sharing and notifications.
Shift and location sharing: Your shift and location-sharing status now appear in a single status pill at the top of the map, showing at a glance whether you're on or off shift and whether your location is being shared.
-
Tap the pill to open a menu and choose your status:
-
On shift, location sharing enabled
-
On shift, location sharing disabled
-
Off shift, location sharing disabled
-
If location sharing is turned off in your settings or restricted by your organization, the menu shows this too.
Note: Going off shift pauses all push notifications automatically, and going back on shift resumes them.
Availability: Available for manual update in the App Store by the end of the week of August 10th. Automatic updates complete by the end of the week of August 17th.
2026.27 Release notes
Web experience bug fixes and maintenance
CAD alert toast styling fix
Fixed an issue where CAD alert toasts could revert to the legacy toast style when the Axon Devices layer was turned off, even though the agency's new alert format was enabled.
Availability: All regions
Mobile (iOS and Android)
Android bug fixes and maintenance
This release improves reliability across the map, livestreaming and voice comms.
- Map:
- The map now stays centered on a teammate or location when you select one, instead of drifting off-target.
- Camera cluster counts now reflect your active status filters, so the number on a cluster matches the cameras you've chosen to see.
- Users with livestream access can now open a livestream from a map pin reliably, including right after signing in.
- Improved map stability during heavy alert and multi-camera activity.
- Livestreaming:
- The app now stays open when you move to another screen while a livestream is running.
- Livestreaming from your phone is more reliable, with broadcasts staying active for their full duration.
- Voice comms:
- Voice comms now reconnects automatically after Stealth mode is turned off on Axon Body 4 and Axon Body Workforce Mini, with no need to start the call manually.
